Therefore, adding terms by changing their order is commutative property of addition and not distributive property. Step 1 instruction is wrong.
Louise wants to factorize completely the given polynomial
Grouping first, second terms together and third, fourth terms together
=
Taking common from first and second terms of the given expression and taking 5 common from the third and fourth terms.
=
Taking (x+3) common from the given expression,
= is the completely factored form.
